Experimental evaluation of the prevention methods for the interface between masonry infill walls and concrete columns

Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
Cracks that form at the interfaces between masonry structures are common uncontrolled occurrences in buildings. Numerous methods have been proposed by the construction industry to address this problem.

From Observed Damage to Executable Repair Quantities: The RELA Repair Module

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Postearthquake workflows currently support three distinct classes of decisions: safety clearance through rapid tagging, portfolio‐level economic damage estimation through probabilistic loss models, and field inspections based on locally defined survey forms, which may subsequently trigger project‐specific strengthening through retrofit design. However,

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 8, Page 1694-1709, 10 July 2026.
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Analytical Floor Response Spectra for Performance‐Based Seismic Design of Non‐structural Elements in Reinforced Concrete Frame Buildings

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1292-1312, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Damage to non‐structural elements significantly impacts the seismic performance of buildings in terms of economic and functionality losses. Consequently, performance‐based seismic design of non‐structural elements has become a key pillar of a comprehensive building‐seismic resilience strategy, for instance, through loss‐targeted earthquake ...

Evaluation of infill strut properties based on in-plane cyclic tests

Građevinar, 2013
In the nonlinear analysis of masonry infilled RC frame structures, simple strut models are often adopted to represent the masonry infill, particularly in the case of extensive parametric numerical studies.

Masonry infills and earthquakes

, 2009
Masonry infills are building elements with high cost that often suffer cracking due to movement of the supports and thermohygral behaviour, with serious consequences in comfort and efficiency, particularly in the case of enclosure walls. The new seismic code in Europe (Eurocode 8) clearly defines the structural designer as responsible for the safety of

Masonry infilled frames – contemporary structural concepts

, 2021
Infilled frames were the focus of numerous experimental tests which have been executed to investigate the seismic behaviour of these systems, but the task remains challenging due to significantly pronounced nonlinear structural behaviour. The infill inevitably changes the “common” and well-known structural behaviour of bare steel and RC frames into a ...

Experimental Dataset From Full‐Scale Near‐Collapse Tests on Two‐Storey, Two‐Bay Masonry‐Infilled Reinforced Concrete Frames With Timber‐Based Reinforced Concrete‐Timber Panel Seismic Retrofit

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This study describes a dataset from an experimental campaign investigating the quasi‐static cyclic lateral response of two full‐scale, two‐storey, two‐bay reinforced concrete (RC) frames with masonry infills representative of mid‐20th century European construction practice.

DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF VENTILATED MASONRY FAÇADES WITH INTEGRATED RETENTION SYSTEMS

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 145-150, April 2026.
Abstract An effective strategy to mitigate seismic risk and enable the use of ventilated façades in seismic regions, while taking advantage of their high energy efficiency, consists of implementing retention or containment systems that prevent the detachment and fall of façade components during a seismic event.
